Pancasila

Pancasila is the official and foundational philosophical theory of Indonesia. Its name means "five principles" in Javanese, referring to: monotheism, a just and civilized humanity, a unified Indonesia, democracy, and social justice. Sukarno promulgated Pancasila as the official philosophy of the newly independent state in 1945, and the "New Order" dictatorship of Suharto strongly supported Pancasila and repressed political Islam and communism. The ideology only recognized Buddhism, Confucianism, Hinduism, Islam, Protestantism, and Catholicism as official religions, while atheism was not tolerated.
